We share knowledge to improve lives worldwide
Our vision is a world where the sharing of agricultural and environmental knowledge empowers people and protects the planet.
Featured
This International Women’s Day, we look at the potential impact of AI tools on women farmers and how they can help boost women’s income and productivity in rural farming communities.
Recognising the contributions of women to agriculture, we highlight the stories of women in agrifood systems who have flourished, and whose work we have been proud to support.
Policy and practice are increasingly framed by evidence synthesis, so training in related best practices is key to strengthening capacity and supporting existing research networks.
Our focus
Helping people get access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food. Helping farmers grow more and lose less to pests and diseases. Supporting farmers' access to markets and nature-positive solutions to crop production and protection.
Climate resilient food and nutrition production, utilizing and conserving a healthy landscape and properly-functioning ecosystems.
Creating a world in which women, youth and marginalised communities are included and treated equally in agricultural production, thus reducing youth unemployment and poverty.
Developing nature-based solutions, including biological control solutions, for pests and diseases that minimize environmental harm, helping to protect and restore global ecosystems and biodiversity.
Combining original scientific research, scientific publishing, journalism and practical expertise to increase the reach, application and impact of science to benefit agriculture and the environment.
